Accessing env secret with a txt config

Replit Help
1

Question:
A Discord bot comes neatly packed in a jar file that reads my Discord token from the config.txt file.

Discord token can’t be pasted on this config file because my free Repl is public.

Is there a way for this config.txt file to pull the Discord Token from the saved secret env?

Thank you

// This sets the token for the bot to log in with
// This MUST be a bot token (user tokens will not work)
// If you don't know how to get a bot token, please see the guide here:
// https://github.com/jagrosh/MusicBot/wiki/Getting-a-Bot-Token

token = BOT_TOKEN_HERE


// This sets the owner of the bot
// This needs to be the owner's ID (a 17-18 digit number)
// https://github.com/jagrosh/MusicBot/wiki/Finding-Your-User-ID

owner = 0

Hi @CholO1 , welcome to the forums!
You can do it in Python:

import os
key=os.environ['TOKEN_NAME']

I don’t think you can do ot in a txt file.
